So the no WW 1838 shilling definitely exists then?
I have heard that this is now the case in Australia too.
Okay, so in "A History of Currency in the British Colonies" on page 132 it says that the coinage was specifically not for Berbice, even though the...
It's a bit obscure but I came across these coins in a catalogue, but also read that Demerara and Essequibo merged with Berbice in 1831 to create...
I don't collect crowns specifically but I got a 1959 Bermuda crown recently - I didn't realise they they ever produced a crown, let alone two, but...
I'd agree with wax - I've bought at least one coin with what looked like red wax on it. Nice - I knew Arabs were in Sicily at that time but I...
I wonder why they haven't revisited the shield back design - they do seem to try different things but besides the 2002 I think, it's mostly been...

Yeah okay - I have the 6th edition so might give it a miss for now.
Does anyone have a copy of English Gold Coinage Volume II (1816-1971) by Maurice Bull? I'm thinking of getting a copy but is there anything new in...
Has anyone got a copy of English Silver Coinage Since 1649 7th? I'm interested in maybe buying a copy but is there much new in it from the 7th...
Do you know which Cook Islands coins?
Any explanation for the mule? Just a mix-up?
Very nice. I assume it's the matte that is rare?
Interesting - I've only read about them and didn't realise there were any recent sales. Interesting that it's not uncirculated either. Was there a...
Numista seems to be the most comprehensive (broadly) to me, but I think it'll always be a case of people who are interested in the deeper details...
Nice designs I think. I never liked the parts of the shield.
